“Please Don’t Expect Me To Always Be Good And Kind And Loving. There Are Times When I Will Be Cold

recovery can be difficult and can take a lot longer than you expected. don’t be hard on yourself for getting burnt out. have compassion even when it feels like your not recovering “fast enough” or “correctly.” everyone is on their own path.

“Sometimes I hate you, sometimes I hate myself, but always I miss you.”

— David Henry Hwang, M. Butterfly

i want to love them-- primarily, myself-- right, so i will make myself better.

please remember that hurting someone else simply because you're hurting was never okay and never will be.

it is ironic how the way people will do anything to earn your forgiveness yet do barely anything to keep from hurting you in the first place.

there's a major difference between striving to live and just getting by.

why is it easier to still keep on wanting someone even if it hurts?

you know, the features of my body i admired the most were my eyes. every time i looked in the mirror, i adored the way it glistened with glee. but now that i only see sorrow and pain in them, i'm unable to fall in love with it again.

there is no perfect working environment. toxicity can be found anywhere. it is just a matter of which one is worth sticking with.
